## Script files contained in this analysis:
- `analyses.html` : Compiled report of the linear mixed effects model analysis. It can be regenerated using `analyses.Rmd` and `data/data.RData`
- `analyses.Rmd` : Linear mixed effects model analysis
- `customised.functions.txt`: Bootstrapping function
- `vif_func.R`: VIF function
## Data file
- `data/data.RData`: Data frames required by `analysis.Rmd`
+ The variables are described in the `analysis.Rmd` and in the Variables section of the paper.
- `data/byitem_rating.tsv`: By item rating data
+ `item_id`: Word
+ `p.Resp.mean`: Mean rating with the LC [p]
+ `m.Resp.mean`: Mean rating with the LC [m]
+ `s.Resp.mean`: Mean rating with the LC [s]
+ `r.Resp.mean`: Mean rating with the LC [r]
+ `p.Resp.sd`: Standard deviation of the ratings with the LC [p]
+ `m.Resp.sd`: Standard deviation of the ratings with the LC [m]
+ `s.Resp.sd`: Standard deviation of the ratings with the LC [s]
+ `r.Resp.sd`: Standard deviation of the ratings with the LC [r]
+ `lc.dom`: Dominant linking consonant (based on the highest mean rating: `p.Resp.mean`, `m.Resp.mean`, `s.Resp.mean`, `r.Resp.mean`)
- `data/byitem_standardised_rating.tsv`: By item rating data standardized by raters. Ratings were first standardised for each participant to remove by-participant variations. Means and standard deviations of the standardised ratings were then computed for the four linking consonants for each word
+ `item_id`: Word
+ `p.zResp.mean`: Mean rating with the LC [p]
+ `m.zResp.mean`: Mean rating with the LC [m]
+ `s.zResp.mean`: Mean rating with the LC [s]
+ `r.zResp.mean`: Mean rating with the LC [r]
+ `p.zResp.sd`: Standard deviation of the ratings with the LC [p]
+ `m.zResp.sd`: Standard deviation of the ratings with the LC [m]
+ `s.zResp.sd`: Standard deviation of the ratings with the LC [s]
+ `r.zResp.sd`: Standard deviation of the ratings with the LC [r]
+ `lc.dom`: Dominant linking consonant (based on the highest mean rating: `p.zResp.mean`, `m.zResp.mean`, `s.zResp.mean`, `r.zResp.mean`)
## Image files
- `images`: Directory contains variable importance plots in both .pdf and .tiff formats
